A cashier's check is not a cancelled check unless it has been cashed. A cancelled check is one that has already been cashed. Once you cash a cashier's check, the bank keeps it and you don't get it back.

A check is cancelled when the person who issues it draws two parallel lines across the check and writes cancelled in it. This way, the check is no longer a legal tender and is worthless going forward. Since you are the one doing it, there is no need for the bank to return it to you. If you are asking about a bounced check, then yes, the bank will return it to you.
